Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Great platform for easy accessible information on private market companies, by far the best. Helps with company information, funding, technology used, investments, board members, and much more. Crunchbase also allows you to connect to your external CRM which is helpful for tracking companies externally and adding your own data as well.
  • None. Hard to say any pro. Data on it is available on several other free sources. They just compile it together and make it pretty.
  • The free version is all you need, I see no pros to buying this product. The information is outdated and it cost me over $1500.

Cons

  • You only get a limited amount of views without paying, which can be an inconvenience; they also just recently released that feature over the last few months.
  • Extremely expensive. Data on it, was available on other sites for free. Definitely do not even start a free trial. Because, if you forget by chance, the company is not going to send a reminder for renewal and will charge you total annual subscription charge.
  • For $1500 they provide outdated information, you can find most if not all this information with a Google search. Stating that Crunchbase is not value for money. They charge yearly with no monthly option for this reason, once you realize the information is not valid you are stuck and they will not refund. We used their boost functionally to look at tech stacks but because most companies are using third parties these aren’t shown so you are only left seeing the underlying basics which everyone already knows.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Most comprehensive platform for private market information, very extensive with a lot of features for tackling VC investments, M&A and more. Also provides very comprehensive funding information on companies including type of round raised, nature of funding terms and much more.

Cons

  • It's incredibly expensive, and I'm not sure if it's worth it TBH. I think you can get good data, but not sure if it provides data that you can't live without.
